There’s something to be said about not peaking in high school. Sure, I would’ve like to have the American Pie version of high school… but I know most of those kids who did. And I think they’re still working on their BA. Or dropped out and keep getting fired from their food service job. Or have a toddler.
There’s also something to be said about peaking in...

THE BEST BASIC
1. Hawkin’s House of Burgers, 11603 Slater Street, Watts. Hands down the best basic burger in Los Angeles. The meat is juicy, greasy, delicious and plentiful. Good luck putting down a double once you’ve picked it up, the mess and the taste won’t let you.
2. Capitol Burger, 4301 West Pico Blvd., Los Angeles. This tiny spot in a parking lot serves up burgers so good...

“Hasta La Pasta, Baby”- Homemade Garlic and Rosemary Pappardelle
While I was couch surfing this weekend, I spent some time looking through some pictures from my trip to Italy a few summers ago. After browsing through the photos of the amazing Italian dishes, I got the urge to make my own homemade pasta. This was my first time making homemade pasta and I don’t think I’ll ever...

i’m about to get way serious on everyone. well, as serious as i can get.
in life, we’re lucky to meet a handful of people that instantly get us. and sometimes if we’re mad lucky we get to hang on to them….despite the distance, the changes in your life, my alcohol abuse, or anything else that may arise over ten years of knowing someone.

i like having the front window shades drawn because when I walk around 75% naked after taking a shower, I don’t have to worry about my high school neighbors peeking in.
Car Shopping
So in my desperate search for a new vehicle, I talked my husband into driving to Holland (about 3 hours away) to go look at a dealership that had quite a few reasonably priced vehicles that seemed to fit the criteria that I am looking for:
under 80k
made after 2000
less than $10,000
wagon, no sedan
So we test drove some Subaru’s and I am stoked about the thought of getting one. We...

Dear Pat Robertson,
I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out. And you make God look like a big mean bully who kicks people when they are down, so I’m all over that action. But when you say that Haiti has made a pact with me, it is totally humiliating. I may be evil incarnate, but I’m no welcher. The way you put it,...
funny emails
today my sister sent me an e-mail of “Ruined Kodak Moments” basically where your carefully framed and organized shot was ruined by someone in the background. Funniest thing I’ve seen all day.
Best Part: I sent it to a few co-workers. All day long, every now and then you would hear some one laughing hysterically in their office saying things like “look at those...

just got back from my first yoga class of the year. made some hot chocolate spiked with a little bit of dark chocolate mint coffee creamer. an excellent way to end a borderline bummer of a day.
I hate it when I leave my water bottle (perhaps my...

“I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting. The Tonight Show at 12:05 simply isn’t the Tonight Show. Also, if I accept this move I will be knocking the Late Night show, which I inherited from David Letterman...
